Roots

As you can imagine I have been seeing a lot of family during this leg of the visit. I have been using this opportunity to talk with elder members of the family and listen to the stories about their descendants and at the same time, draw a picture of an era dominated by mass migration of people from all over Europe to this country in search of a sense of progress that couldn´t be found at home. This is a picture of my great grand mother on my mothers side. Apparently she was a real bitch.
